Inverness / Mcbean/Bain family
« on: Friday 25 January 08 11:39 GMT (UK)  »
I have been contacted by the Clan McBean society from USA with the following information

 
Bill Bean, Clan MacBean Organization Genealogist will be at the Library from April 21 to April 25 doing family research to increase the number of family lines in the Clan database.   At present we have about 40 Scottish family lines with most from around Inverness.
I have hundreds of families, but do not know the uplines so I can connect them together.  This will be my main objective... connecting family lines.  On April 21, I will leave a schedule as to the times I will be at the Library, so you don't waste a trip.   I have to work around my dialysis appointments at the hospital

I hope the info will be of some use to members

Inverness / McBean/Alvie
« on: Saturday 15 December 07 16:02 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Every one
I am looking for help/advice perhaps even a lookup?
I have been researching my Paternal Grandmothers family tree, Her father was Lachlan McBain from Alvie, her mother Annie Georgina McGregor from Kingussie.
Lachlan's parents were John McBain from Delfour Alvie and Catherine Smith from Glen Urquhart
John's parents were William McBean from Delfour Alvie and Janet McBean from Alvie
My problem the Parents of William McBean are Finlay McBean a weaver and Mary McDonald in Pitchurn
they have 3 children between 1795 and 1805, in 1810 Finlay McBean weaver in Pitchurn and Spouse Catherine McBean have a daughter Ann. from 1817 to 1825 Finlay McBean Weaver in Pitchurn and Spouse Margaret Fraser have another 5 Children, in the 1841 Census Finlay weaver,  Margaret and Son Angus are still in Pitchurn.
Problem are they the same Finlay can find no trace of Births Marriages or deaths of even 1 Finlay of approx right age.  Can anyone out there help solve my brick wall, can get no farther back , any family of Finlay out there who know answer, or are their any answers in the graveyard at Alvie?
